AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the idea of implementing a reward system for referring new users to a platform. One participant questions the usefulness of the referral counter without any incentives, suggesting that a reward system could enhance engagement. Responses include humorous suggestions like job security or simple acknowledgment as rewards. Some participants express surprise at the existing referral process, noting that new users can mention referrers by name during sign-up, which they were previously unaware of. The conversation touches on a broader theme of entitlement to rewards, with a light-hearted mention of the prevalence of award shows in media. Overall, the dialogue highlights a desire for recognition in referral efforts while acknowledging the current system's functionality.

Don't you guys think we should get something for referring people? I mean what's the point of having the counter? It just seems a little useless. Ok, so maybe I'm just trying to sneak my way up the PF social ladder, but I still think some kind of reward system could be cool.

How about - you get to keep your job? That's the reward most people get for doing a good job at work.

Or - how about we give you a pat on the back?

Or - we just say "Good bloody show, Mate!" :biggrin:
 
Do you actually use the referral thing? I tell people about the site, but just give the main site address without my referral ID (as if I could even remember it).
 
Check me out... I've got a grand total of, well 1.
 
Keep up the good work!
 
I have a referall ID?
 
You don't need an ID. When the person signs up, there's a space for them to put your PF name as someone who referred them.
 
Why do most people think that everything they do in life deserves an award?

Hey, since you said that, I took a look. I have a referral! :smile: I know the folks I've sent here, but none has spoken up and told me they signed in. (Most come back and tell me it looks a little "intense." :biggrin:) I didn't even know it worked that way. Ha.
